The fluctuations of ETH in the past 48 hours are all fake moves; the core is the main force's silent kill + turnover lock-up: the 3000 key level is not consolidation, but a tool for the main force to wash the market and gather chips!

Core Logic:

The purpose of the main force locking in at 3000 is to create a false high resistance above, real support below, and horizontally grind the mindset, forcing retail investors to be afraid to chase up, unable to cut down, and unable to endure the sideways, ultimately handing over cheap chips and completing the final chip transfer.

Three Key Signals

3000-3040 is a false high wall: large order volume but no transactions, frequent order cancellations, only used to control the rhythm, not real resistance;

2820-2880 is true support: buying pressure is dense and stable, transactions are fast, and any selling pressure is absorbed, main force quietly accumulates;

Abnormal volume-price = precursor to a big market: transaction volume doubles but volatility shrinks, RSI does not fall in the low zone, MACD does not turn green, belongs to energy contraction, directional suppression, only for turnover buildup.

Trend judgment: direction is upwards, explosion within 12-36 hours

Breaking below 2880 = washout tail knife, not a reversal (a true reversal requires breaking 2770 without bouncing back, which is very unlikely);

Breaking 3000 = false move, breaking 3030-3040 = main force release signal, pulling up rhythm: 3050→3090→3120→3150;

ETH resists 3000 against the trend, comparing to the weakness of BTC and altcoins, it is a manifestation of strength itself.

Directly executable operational suggestions

Contract party: do not bet on a breakthrough near 3000, stabilize at 3040 before going long (stop loss below 3030), do not chase shorts if breaking below 2940, wait for confirmation at 2770;

Spot party: do not cut, do not chase, do not short, do not sell chips in the sideways area, patiently wait for direction;

Increased position party: wait for one of two signals (breakthrough and stabilize at 3040, or quickly rebound after breaking below 2940)

Final conclusion

3000 is the main lock-up turnover position, not a pressure point; the current sideways movement is the calm before the storm, ETH has completed its buildup, and there is a high probability of an upward explosion within 12-36 hours!
